Chapter 230: We Eat Monsters
Chapter 230: We Eat Monsters
"Are you sure you're not joking?"
Facing the shocked expression on Blizzard's face, Yecheng and Saitama revealed their usual calm expressions. "What's so strange about that? You ate quite a bit of the seafood just now, didn't you?"
"Those were all different kinds of monsters. They're the Deep Sea Tribe monsters that came ashore today."
Seeing Yecheng's serious expression, Blizzard immediately covered her mouth and ran to the bathroom.
As she knelt by the toilet, vomiting, she suddenly remembered the reports from Eyelash and Mountain Ape from the Blizzard Team.
As the second team, their assigned task for the day was to deal with the Tiger-Class Peak Kelp Monster.
During the battle, Mountain Ape's team had struggled, and in the end, Glasses' team mentioned that an unrecognizable figure had suddenly interrupted the fight, pulling down the Kelp Monster, allowing them to defeat it.
Now it seemed that the one who had helped the Blizzard Team by pulling down the Kelp Monster was likely the bald Saitama.
What left Blizzard speechless was that Saitama's assistance to the Blizzard Team was probably not because he saw them in a tough fight, but simply because he wanted the kelp on their foreheads...
After a bout of physical self-induced vomiting, Blizzard returned to the living room and saw Yecheng and Saitama still enjoying the monster hot pot. Her stomach churned once more.
"You're telling me these are monsters... How can you eat them so heartily?"
At this moment, Blizzard's gaze towards Yecheng and Saitama was undoubtedly filled with terror. She had never imagined that someone would use monsters as ingredients for a hot pot... No, should this even be edible?
"The monsters we eat are usually those with animal-like appearances. We don't eat the ones that resemble humans."
As Yecheng explained, he picked up a large piece of shrimp and popped it into his mouth.
"The issue isn't here; the problem is that these are all monsters..."
If she hadn't known Yecheng and Saitama and didn't realize they weren't monsters themselves, she might have attacked them by now.
Monsters were already terrifying enough to ordinary people, but the two in front of her were using monsters as food and enjoying it so much—weren't they even more frightening than monsters?
"What's wrong with monsters? These monsters mutated from animals, which means they were also various animals before mutating.
As long as they're not poisonous, why not eat them? You were enjoying it just now, weren't you? Do you feel any adverse effects?
And let me tell you, monster meat contains a lot of energy. That's why we're so strong after eating them for so long."
Of course, the last sentence was entirely Yecheng's wild guess, with no actual basis for reference.
But upon hearing Yecheng's words, Blizzard took it seriously. She suppressed the discomfort in her stomach, picked up her chopsticks, and started eating again.
If it were just for filling her stomach, Blizzard would have refused without a second thought. But when Yecheng mentioned that eating monsters could make one stronger, Blizzard couldn't pretend she hadn't heard it!
She was too obsessed with becoming stronger! Not to mention that the monsters tasted so good after being cooked; even if she had to eat them raw, for the sake of strength, she would endure the nausea and take a few bites!
In the past, she had endured hellish training to become stronger, which is why she earned the title "Hell Blizzard" upon her return.
Compared to the hellish training she endured in the past, eating monsters was nothing! To become stronger as quickly as possible, Snowflake's appetite had grown significantly. Despite usually not eating much, today she ate just as much as Yecheng and Saitama.
She was also very happy, believing that living with Yecheng and the others was indeed the right choice. On the very first day, she had discovered the secret to their team's rapid growth!
Snowflake planned to keep this secret to herself. If everyone knew about it, how could she secretly grow stronger and then amaze everyone?
So she intended to keep the secret buried deep inside, not telling a word to her sister Cyclone or any other members of the "Blizzard Team."
Saitama was quite unhappy. Because Yecheng had said a few extra words, the usually light eater, Snowflake, was now competing with them for food.
Originally, with Genos back at the factory for repairs, Saitama only had Yecheng as a competitor, but now another voracious eater had joined the fray.
"Miss Snowflake, if you eat this much, we'll have to charge extra for the food, after all—"
"Slam!———————"
Before Yecheng could finish, the wealthy Snowflake slapped down another stack of cash, immediately changing the expression of the person who was about to speak. "Please, Miss Snowflake, enjoy your meal. If it's not enough, there's still plenty in the fridge."
"Beep beep beep beep beep———!"
Just as everyone was enjoying their meal, Snowflake's phone suddenly rang. Seeing the caller ID was from the Hero Association, she was momentarily stunned but quickly answered the call.
The caller was Sique Leader from the Hero Association, who was mainly discussing the promotion of hero rankings with Snowflake.
Due to the excellent performance of Snowflake and her team in stopping the Sea King at the stadium, especially Snowflake's significant contributions, which earned her a lot of public admiration, the Hero Association decided to promote their rankings.
The License-Free Knight, who was the first in the C-Rank, had refused promotion for the umpteenth time.
It wasn't that he had the same obsession with being the top C-Rank hero as Snowflake did in the past, but he felt that his strength was not enough to qualify for B-Rank.
Venom Dart, Lightning Max, and Snake had their rankings promoted by one or two positions.
Because of her excellent performance, the Hero Association planned to promote Snowflake to the second position in the A-Rank. If it weren't for the overwhelming popularity and strength of "Sweetheart Mask," who was the first in the A-Rank, Snowflake might have even taken the top spot.
However, being the second in the A-Rank was still a cause for great joy for Snowflake. It also reinforced her belief that relying on Yecheng was indeed the best decision of her life.
Just look at how quickly her hero ranking had jumped, from the first in the B-Rank to the second in the A-Rank.
After confirming that Snowflake agreed to the promotion, Sique Leader also mentioned Yecheng and hoped that Snowflake could contact him.
Because Yecheng, worried about trouble, had provided a fake number when he registered, the Hero Association was unable to reach him.
Yecheng had always aimed to be a nobody, so he hadn't taken the registration process seriously.
The reason the Hero Association wanted to contact Yecheng was that, due to his impressive performance in the recent incident, he also had the opportunity to be promoted to a higher hero rank.
